“The self you have betrayed is your mind; self-esteem is reliance on one’s power to think. The ego you seek, that essential “you” which you cannot express or define, is not your emotions or inarticulate dreams, but your intellect, that judge of your supreme tribunal whom you’ve impeached in order to drift at the mercy of any stray shyster you describe as your “feeling.”” ThinkingMindSelfFeelingsDreamOrderEmotionSelf EsteemJudgingEgoEssentialsMercyIntellectSupremeEsteemBetrayedRelianceInarticulateTribunals Author:John Galt
